Chelsea have packed up like the blinds on the 318 E200 Darts  2-0, Skipp and Kane with the goals. Havertz came close to a goal, but nothing. Surely the magic has run out for Potter? I don't really see things improving for Chelsea now we're in the post Abramovich era I think it will but it will be a slow process |

I don't really see things improving for Chelsea now we're in the post Abramovich era I think it will but it will be a slow process It's kind of like with Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger leaving their clubs after more than 20 years. It's been 10 years since SAF left United, and in the past 6 until yesterday, there weren't any trophies. It took several years to find the right manager, but it's also about the players, like getting rid of Pogba and Ronaldo has definitely been a good move, perhaps Maguire too. Perhaps United could go onto win the league next year, but definitely a return to Champions League football is on the horizon. Wenger's Arsenal went into decline a few years before he left, but this year is the first year that they are looking strong enough to win the league. If Man City do get punished say through being expelled from the Premier League it could perhaps be another rebuilding phase like with United and Arsenal |

I don't really see things improving for Chelsea now we're in the post Abramovich era I think it will but it will be a slow process I think people need to get off his back quite frankly. There’s been far too much change at Chelsea both over the years and particularly this season and their fans really do seem like an ungrateful lot because instant success worked for them previously. Potter didn’t get a pre-season, inherited a bunch of players he didn’t sign and TBH, I think he had little say in the January signings too - he has proved at every club he has been at that given time, he’ll bring success. Time for ungrateful Chelsea fans to be patient - look at Arteta as the perfect example |

I don't really see things improving for Chelsea now we're in the post Abramovich era They still have the money flooding in, albeit from a Yank who's not so clued up on Soccer... they just have to harness it better. Buying big name players is all well and good if they can gel and play as a team with some sense of direction. Case in point :- Newcastle aren't that much better with their Oil money at the moment... can see an embarrassing CL exit for Chelsea in their next match, but who will they bring in? There was talk of Mourinho returning  |

Just the way society is nowadays. Everyone expects things to be done now |

Oh dear, Man Utd pulled a shocking performance today at Anfield!
Really hope that that was a blip and back to winning ways on Thursday

Man Utd had better opportunities but can't agree they were the better team first half - thought Liverpool were better throughout the pitch first half apart from the finishing until Gakpo stepped up. |

I thought Man Utd looked the better team for much of the first half but they just capitulated in the second half. Before the game I would have gone 3-2 United, Liverpool haven't been on a great run of form lately whilst United have, but they did have 2 games per week most weeks this year, so players are tired. I do think it was a mistake starting Dalot though. They should probably be fine in the Europa League on Thursday and win comfortably like 3-0 to Southampton next week |

Tottenham are running out of steam! That was a poor performance, crashed out of two cups within a week of each other! Bringing on a defender in the final 10 minutes when they needed to score to go level on aggregate? Conte is tactically inept and surely won't be at Tottenham next season. Even if they get top 4 I don't see it as a successful season, they have to win a trophy to class it as a successful season

Tottenham have broken my heart again... this isn't even a rant about the missing ENRs on the 318 for once  I thought Conte's return would frighten the horses, I was correct. At least Gargamel Stellini tried, but the same tepid performance, poor substitutions made late as usual, and desperation in dying moments as the majority of his games... Conte might as well get on the train at Seven Sisters with the rest of the Milan fans tonight and sod off  |

2-0, Skipp and Kane with the goals. Havertz came close to a goal, but nothing. Surely the magic has run out for Potter?
